Journey of a body on this earth

Fog Wave

As a continuation of our Mt. Diablo tour, this one was taken looking south east where the fog was the heaviest.  I was amazed to see the fog creating a wave-like effect over one of the hills in the valley.

    Why does fog and mountains go together so well like cream and hot chocolate?

    Looking across the Valley toward the Sierras? I will never miss driving in pea soup fog! Love how you captured the density of that fog.

      More toward Tracy/Livermore area. And I know what you mean about the fog. oddly enough It was just a layer. Once we went down the mountain, it was only hazy and we could see the fog above us.

    Fog ranks very high among my favorite atmospheric phenomena, and this is a real beauty. Your analogy is so appropriate–the similarity of the movement of low clouds and fog to that of water is endlessly fascinating. Happy solstice, Laura!

      Oh I’m so glad you like this fog image and the way I described it. I love it too and since it happens a lot around here, I should get out more to take the pics. I guess when it’s always there, sometimes I forget that it’s an interesting thing to view. Thank you! Happy Holidays!

    I suppose we shouldn’t be surprised to see fog behave like water….

    Ok I said I wasn’t but I have too. You photography over these last few months has risen to a new level. Your works have made me stop mid scroll and just absorb everything in them. I can’t think of any words that describe what I see….

    Lovely capture! That wave really adds to the feeling that this isn’t an image of clouds, but of wild, crashing waves rolling up a beach.

    All my years in the Vancouver area, and I can’t remember a fog bank comparable to that. Maybe I need to get out more.

    It certainly looks like a wave breaking on rocks doesn’t it?
